he Wheat Sheaf has been around since 1849 which makes it arguably the oldest watering hole in Toronto. Back in the good old days, pre-Confederation even, soldiers has easy access to a quick pint at The Wheat Sheaf by way of underground tunnels that connected Fort York to the tavern. The menu is satisfying and predictable. Chicken wings, burgers and beer-battered chicken are the house favourites. For a taste of Canadian history and some filling bar fare The Wheat Sheaf is the place to go. –J.T.
